EASY TUNA AND BEAN KALE SALAD

Easy Tuna and Bean Kale Salad image

To use kale for a salad, you may want to massage the leaves. Sounds crazy, but the leaves are softer, greener and milder to taste. I often use kale as a base in salads, in this case I have added vegetables, beans, and tuna. A delicious combination of flavors!
